Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a nasal oxygen tube for preventing pressure damage of equipment, belonging to the technical field of medical equipment. Background Art

[0002] High-flow nasal oxygen cannulas are used for patients with spontaneous breathing. They provide effective treatment by providing high-flow, heated and humidified respiratory gases. They can be connected to the respiratory circuits of various brands of high-flow respiratory humidification therapy devices for patients to use when inhaling oxygen. However, high-flow oxygen concentrators have high oxygen concentrations and large oxygen flow rates, so high-flow nasal oxygen cannulas are usually relatively stiff so that they can withstand higher airflow velocities. This rigid nasal oxygen cannula exerts pressure on the nose wings and nasolabial grooves for a long time, which can easily lead to continuous pressure on local skin and tissues, and then pressure sores. The annual incidence of device-related pressure injuries is 0.60%. Among them, nasal oxygen devices are the most common cause of device-related pressure injuries, with an incidence rate of 32%.

[0003] Pressure injuries to the nose can reduce patients' comfort and compliance with oxygen therapy, leading to increased anxiety and irritability when removing the oxygen tube or causing the tube to slip, resulting in decreased oxygen saturation and CO2 retention, which can be life-threatening. Even preventative measures (such as gauze and toilet paper) cannot prevent pressure sores, which can cause anxiety in nurses, increasing their workload and requiring them to make more rounds.

[0020] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] A nasal oxygen cannula that prevents pressure damage from an instrument, such as Figure 1 、 2 As shown, it includes a nasal suction head 1 that passes through the left and right sides, two upwardly arranged nasal catheters 2 are provided above the nasal suction head 1, and oxygen supply tubes 3 are provided on both sides of the nasal suction head 1; air bags 4 are provided on the inner sides of the nasal suction head 1 and the oxygen supply tubes 3.

[0023] Specifically, the nasal nozzle 1 is connected to the oxygen supply tube 3 on both sides for oxygen delivery. The nasal cannula 2 is inserted into the patient's nasal cavity to provide the patient with high-flow oxygen therapy with a constant inhaled oxygen concentration and constant temperature and humidity. The airbag 4 is located inside the nasal nozzle 1 and the oxygen supply tube 3 to disperse the pressure of the nasal oxygen cannula on the nose and nasolabial groove, reducing the pressure on the local skin and thus reducing the risk of pressure sores. Furthermore, the airbag 4 is made of a soft and elastic material, which can better adapt to the contours of the nose, reducing the pressure of the rigid nasal oxygen cannula on the nose, improving patient comfort, and alleviating pressure on local blood vessels, helping to maintain normal blood circulation and reducing tissue damage caused by blood circulation disorders.

[0024] As another specific embodiment, the oxygen supply tube 3 is a corrugated tube. The design of the corrugated tube makes it difficult to be flattened when subjected to external pressure, which can maintain smooth air flow and ensure that the patient can continue to receive oxygen at a predetermined flow rate and concentration.

[0025] As another specific embodiment, the airbag 4 is provided with an air hole 5 for inflation and deflation. The air hole 5 allows the inflation level of the airbag 4 to be adjusted, and the height of the nasal nozzle 1 can be adjusted according to the inflation level. This allows the patient to adjust the softness and hardness of the airbag 4 according to personal comfort, better fitting the nose, thereby achieving an optimal wearing experience, reducing air leakage, and ensuring the effectiveness of oxygen therapy.

[0026] In another specific embodiment, the air hole 5 is provided with a switch; alternatively, the air hole 5 is connected to an inflation / discharge pipe, which is provided with a switch. The switch prevents accidental deflation and ensures that the airbag 4 remains stably supported when needed. In this embodiment, the switch can adopt existing structures such as a two-way valve or a silicone inflation valve.

[0027] As another specific embodiment, the switch element is a self-sealing valve. The self-sealing valve is simple and easy to use, requiring no complex steps. It automatically seals when not deflated, preventing gas leakage and ensuring that the airbag 4 maintains the desired pressure and shape. Furthermore, the self-sealing valve can be made of a thicker flexible material, and a needle or thin tube can be inserted into the airbag 4 to pump and deflate the air. When the needle is withdrawn, the flexible material automatically deforms and fits, achieving self-sealing. Furthermore, the self-sealing valve can also be implemented in a form similar to a positive pressure switch.

[0028] In another specific embodiment, the airbag 4 is elongated, with both ends positioned on the cheeks. This elongated design helps evenly distribute pressure across the larger areas of the nasolabial groove and cheeks, rather than concentrating it in a small area. This reduces pressure on the skin and protects soft facial tissue from damage caused by friction and shear forces. Furthermore, the airbag can be adjusted to suit the individual patient's facial contours for a better fit.

[0029] As another specific embodiment, both ends of the airbag 4 are connected to the oxygen supply tube 3. The fixed connection integrates the airbag 4 and the oxygen supply tube 3, ensuring that the position of the airbag 4 on the nasal oxygen cannula remains stable and will not shift due to the patient's activities or external factors, thereby preventing the airbag 4 from accidentally falling off or the oxygen supply tube 3 from separating from the airbag 4.

[0030] As another specific embodiment, the airbag 4 is detachably connected to the oxygen supply tube 3. Patients can choose airbags 4 of different sizes or shapes according to their facial features and comfort requirements to achieve personalized adaptation.

[0031] In another specific embodiment, the airbag 4 is provided with a buckle 6 on its exterior, which engages with the oxygen delivery tube 3. This buckle 6 connection allows for quick and easy assembly and disassembly of the assembly without the use of tools, saving time and labor. It is intuitive and easy to use, even for untrained personnel. Furthermore, it mates with the bellows and engages with the smaller diameter, providing a stable fixation and preventing the components from loosening or shifting after connection.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention extends to any new features or any new combinations disclosed in this specification, and any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connected," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integrated connections; they may refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention based on specific circumstances.
